07/27/2010 - Tulsa, OK (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tampa Bay linebacker ERIC ORTIZ, Milwaukee quarterback CHRIS GREISEN and Orlando linebacker MARLON MOYE-MOORE have been named the JLS Ironman, Russell Athletic Offensive Players and Riddell Defensive Player of the Week, respectively, for Week 17 of 2010. In addition to these three awards, the AFL is also highlighting the player who makes the best Catch of the Week, the Playmaker of the Week and the Highlight of the Week. The Cutters Catch of the Week Award for Week 17 goes to Utah wide receiver AARON BOONE, while Milwaukee wide receiver DAMIAN HARRELL and Jacksonville defensive back MICHEAUX ROBINSON have been named the Playmakers of the Week. The Highlight of the Week award has gone to Spokane defensive back MERVIN BROOKINS.
JLS IRONMAN OF THE WEEK
Ortiz (6-3, 255, Belhaven) gave Tampa Bay the momentum they needed to jumpstart the offense, scoring the first two touchdowns for the Storm after falling to a 10-0 deficit. After a shutout in the first quarter, Ortiz scored his first touchdown from a 1-yard carry. Less than three minutes later, Ortiz ran in 4-yard pitch from QB Dietz, taking a 14-10 lead. Tampa Bay would never let Alabama recapture the lead. In the 53-29 victory, Ortiz was also a force for the defense, accumulating 4.5 tackles.
RUSSELL ATHLETIC OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Greisen (6-3, 220, NW Missouri) exhausted the Barnstormers defense, pulling off a thrilling 75-67 win to clinch the Midwest Division for Milwaukee. Greisens outstanding game statistics explain why he is No. 1 in total offense (4,947) and total passing (4,942) this season, more than 100 yards over the next contender in each category. Against Iowa, Greisen completed 30-of-40 passes for eight touchdowns and a season-high 413 yards.
RIDDELL DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Moye-Moore (6-2, 250, Maryland) had the experience the Predators needed to beat Oklahoma City and clinch a spot in the playoffs. The six-year veteran caught his second interception of the season at the end of the first quarter, running it back for a 13-yard touchdown. Moye-Moore also had a season-high nine tackles and one tackle for loss. Tanner Varner also had a tremendous game for the Iowa Barnstormers, catching an interception for a 56-yard touchdown and nine tackles in the night.

Michael Vick is back, Brett Favre isn't and the NFC East remains the best division in the NFC, maybe in all of football.
As players start to gather for the start of another season, some things change and some stay the same in the world of the NFL.
The NFC East has been the dominant division in the National Conference for a while, despite limited playoff success, save for the New York Giants surprise Super Bowl win two seasons ago.
Hell, there's a generation of kids in Texas who have never seen the Cowboys win a playoff game (last win was in 1996).
But collectively, the Giants, Eagles, Cowboys and Redskins (well, maybe not so much the Redskins) are as good as a division gets in an NFC conference that has struggled to stay competitive with the AFC side.
Sports bettors have both acknowledged the NFC East's dominance, as one glance at the NFL future odds menu will show.
Looking over the NFL betting odds at online sports book MySportsbook.com we see the top three teams listed to win the NFC Championship are all from the NFC East:
Dallas Cowboys - 7 - 1
Philadelphia Eagles - 13 - 2
New York Giants - 9 - 2
Slotting in behind these three are two teams from the NFC North: the Minnesota Vikings (15-2) and the Chicago Bears (10-1).
Again, despite the lack of recent playoff success, the Dallas Cowboys are popular with the sports betting community, as they hold 14% of all the money wagered on who will win the NFC Championship.
So far, the New York Giants are the bettors' favorite to represent their conference in the Super Bowl, as they have 24% of the overall NFC Championship betting volume.
And what about the Philadelphia Eagles? For the most part, the Eagles had a very productive offseason, the kind that could bring them back to the top.
They had a good draft adding the likes of WR Jeremy Maclin and RB LeSean McCoy.
Unfortunately, the team received a blow when long-time defensive coordinator Jim Johnson passed away on Tuesday.
But this team will make a real run at the division title this year. Going into the regular season, Philly is listed at +240 to win the division.
Last season the Eagles were 9-6-1 SU and 10-6 ATS.
Teams from the NFC East will play teams from the AFC West in the regular season and the Eagles haven't really been a good bet in the last 20 games against the likes of San Diego, Oakland, K.C. and Denver, only going 8-12 ATS.
Two seasons removed from that Super Bowl title, the New York Giants see themselves listed as the odds-on favorite in NFC East championship futures at +162.
Plaxico Burress is gone and with him all the bad publicity surrounding the gun in the sweatpants incident, but can they replace him in the offense?
Last season the Giants were a very reliable bet going 12-4 ATS.
In the Giants' last 20 games against fellow teams from the NFC East; they are 13-7 ATS.
Dallas is listed at +240 to win the division.
Dallas went 9-7 SU and 7-9 ATS last season and with the amount of talent the Cowboys have, a similar performance won't do.
The Cowboys have been atrocious against divisional rivals, going 6-14 ATS in their last 20.
The Washington Redskins are longshots to win the division at +550.
